Central Europe

[gremista]

While I have travelled a great deal, this is a new part of the world for me and I would welcome comments on places to see/road trips/etc. Food and drink suggestions would also be great.

Countries of greatest interest - initially - are Hungary Romania,Slovenia, Croatia, Austria and Northern Italy. Will probably build a few trips around WCQ games in those countries as well

Thoughts, insights and comments appreciated

Romania While I've never been there, I had a friend that spent about 3 months there. He said the people were beyond nice and that it is a really cool place....he liked it so much, my wife & I are considering going there next year. I have a few good friends that are Romanian and they're the kindest, most generous people, so it sounds like you can expect good hospitality.


Slovenia I have another friend that's living in Europe right now. He's been to probably 10 countries already and said Slovenia is his favorite by a longshot.

Here's some cool pictures he took in Ljubljana
